> roughly a third of their own hard-core base (Biden 2020 voters) couldn't bring themselves to vote for Harris,

No, roughly a third of Biden voters who voted for someone other than Harris cited the Gaza conflict.



That's an important distinction, thank you.

However, it still points to the fact that Harris lost millions of votes due to her support for arming Israel.

And, even for the people who voted Harris there was a distinct lack of enthusiasm - directly because of Gaza.

> Even among Biden 2020 voters who did vote for Harris in battleground states, voters by a seven-to-one margin say they would have been more enthusiastic in their support if Harris “pledged to break from President Biden's policy toward Gaza by promising to withhold additional weapons to Israel” rather than less enthusiastic.

> More enthusiastic - 35% > Less enthusiastic - 5%
